Matterhorn Campground and a visit to Telluride - FREE Gondola - woo hoo!

scenery at Matterhorn campground which is just south of Telluride (had to stay here just because of the name!)


Spent a day riding the FREE gondola in Telluride, riding bike paths in the ski area, and had a very expensive lunch in Telluride (pizza, chicken wings - $35 - and we felt terribly cheated).  Telluride is proud that they have no chains - and we love supporting the mom and pop places - but Brown Dog Pizza was a huge disappointment - won't go back there again! (Note: Gary paid extra for "super" toppings - extra pepperoni, etc - and the pizza was thinner and less toppings than a Totino's 99 cent pizza; the wings were really overcooked / dry) - I see mostly positive reviews on the place, but our experience was bad.

Loved Telluride though! Would have liked riding more of the trails and bike paths - plus many hiking trails we didn't have time to do - another reason to get back to this area.
